This letter is concerned with polarimetric dense map reconstruction based on a polarization camera with the help of relative depth information as a prior. In general, polarization imaging is able to reveal information about surface normal such as azimuth and zenith angles, which can support the deve
The recent development of the on-chip micro-polarizer technology has made it possible to acquire - with the same ease of operation as a conventional camera - spatially aligned and temporally synchronized polarization images simultaneously in four orientations. This development has created new opport
Although low-rank and sparse decomposition based methods have been successfully applied to the problem of moving object detection using structured sparsity-inducing norms, they are still vulnerable to significant illumination changes that arise in certain applications. We are interested in moving ob…
In recent years, various shadow detection methods from a single image have been proposed and used in vision systems; however, most of them are not appropriate for the robotic applications due to the expensive time complexity. This paper introduces a fast shadow detection method using a deep learning…
Low-rank and sparse representation based methods have attracted wide attention in background subtraction and moving object detection, where moving objects in the scene are modeled as pixel-wise sparse outliers. Since in real scenarios moving objects are also structurally sparse, recently researchers…
Illumination changes are a typical problem for many outdoor long-term applications such as visual place recognition. Keypoints may fail to match between images taken at the same location but different times of the day. Although recently some methods are presented for creating shadow-free image repre…
